WASHINGTON — Four gruesome ghouls are turning the heads of passing motorists on Route 31 here.

On the front lawn of a Route 31 residence, on the southbound side just before entering Hampton in Hunterdon County, four creatures that defy simple description taunt trick-or-treaters.

“Want some candy?” reads a sign that sits in front of a wheelchair riding creature with a sunken face, holding a plastic dagger streaked with blood.

“Keep Out" and “No Trespassing" line the front yard in addition to a handful of white crosses with the names Dave, Morris, Chad and Sean written on them.

One creature is dressed in full camouflage with a bow and arrow with a deer skull for a head.

The tableau is in a high-traffic area and passing motorists can be seen visibly slowing down to take in the display. At night, the displays can still be seen when the creatures are thrown into spooky relief by a system of flashing lights.
